Council House, Grade II listed municipal building in Dudley, England.

The Council House features a symmetrical frontage with 22 bays on Priory Road, incorporating arches, balconies, and detailed stained glass windows.

The Earl of Dudley placed the foundation stone in June 1934, leading to the completion of this Neo-Georgian structure in July 1935.

The assembly hall section of the Council House served as a concert venue, with performances by notable bands including The Who in 1965.

The building contains a council chamber for sixty members, public galleries, committee rooms, and administrative offices for various municipal departments.

Birmingham sculptor Walter Gilbert and William Bloye from the Birmingham School of Art created decorative elements throughout the building.
